Chapter 148: Boning
"It's over, so many zombie ......" Song Zheng was already shocked, although he had also thought that the Cursed Church would set traps before, but he didn't expect to create such a scene where the whole city was hostile.
But what is more troublesome is that because the people have gone deep into the center of the town, many people are stepping on those corpses at this moment, which also causes many people to fall directly into the encirclement of the undead.
There weren't many zombies around Song Zheng, but what made him depressed was that he was far away from Catherine at the moment, but after losing the Hammer of Destruction, he couldn't resist these zombies with his current combat power.
"Be careful!" Catherine's exclamation sounded behind Song Zheng, and she could already see that Song Zheng's combat effectiveness had dropped greatly when she was in Nanhai Town.
Although she had rushed over to protect Song Zheng, there were too many undead around her, which seriously hindered her speed.
Song Zheng originally wanted to rush over, but as soon as he lifted the reins, several zombies had already pounced directly, and two of the zombies were targeting the horses under him, and after hugging the war horse, they tore it with a big mouth.
The horse immediately fell into a frenzy, which forced Song Zheng to abandon the horse and leap vigorously in Catherine's direction.
However, his foothold is still some distance from Catherine, especially since there are still a lot of zombies in between, and the battle is inevitable.
The screams of the horses behind him were terrifying, and Song Zheng quickly activated his newly learned 'dodge' skill while using the dagger to block, hoping that he would be lucky.
However, to his great surprise, when the 'evasion' skill was activated, he immediately felt some strange changes in his body.
"It seems that my body has become lighter, and my perception has become keen......" Song Zheng couldn't help but be overjoyed after easily dodging the siege of the two zombies.
Originally, he thought that the effect of this 'dodge' skill would be to simply increase the chance of dodging as in the game, and it relied on luck in battle, but now it seems that this 'dodge' skill actually relies on improving his agility and perception ability to gain the ability to dodge enemy attacks.
This makes the skill completely controllable, and even brings a lot of additional benefits, because after the perception is strengthened, all the attacks around it seem to slow down a lot.
"Thank goodness for finally meeting a skill that doesn't cheat." Song Zheng's body shook, and under his strong perception ability, he easily dodged the attacks of those zombies along the way, and smoothly approached Catherine.
He was a little proud of this, but when he saw the zombies that had fallen around Catherine, and there was not a trace of blood on her body, he was immediately discouraged.
Although the effect of the 'dodge' skill is better than expected, it can only be regarded as a defensive skill after all, and it cannot be compared to Catherine's powerful attack ability, after all, if you can win by attacking, who will dodge......
The other knights around were also encircled by zombies, and had to desperately resist the overlapping zombies, but Da Sohan and the others were worthy of being the most powerful first paladins, and their strength was indeed very strong, even if they were under siege, and they were still very calm in the face of the fierce undead, and quickly organized a defensive formation, and soon opened up a safe area.
Song Zheng and Catherine immediately moved closer to that safer place, his current combat strength was not strong, but fortunately, Catherine had always been closely guarding him, and the knight's heavy sword in his hand had cut down hundreds of undead.
This made Song Zheng a little ashamed, he still wanted to take care of her with Catherine, but he didn't expect that in the end, he relied on her to protect her.
However, this kind of encirclement situation was a good time for him to mix up his experience, but the consumption of the 'knife fan' skill on the flying knives was too great, and after only using it twice, the dozens of flying knives he was carrying were exhausted.
"You must get a space prop to put things......" Song Zheng was depressed, in addition to the flying knife, the totem needed by the shaman also needed a lot of space to carry.
In this kind of extremely fierce battle, Song Zheng quickly rose to the next level, and if his throwing knives were enough, he might be able to gain more experience.
What made him more satisfied was that this time he finally obtained a relatively normal skill 'deboning', which is the basic attack skill of the thief, and the consumption should not be large, and it will not exhaust his physical strength and fall into weakness as soon as he makes a move like the killing feast.
However, although he had obtained the basic attack skills, Song Zheng still didn't plan to use them here...... It's disgusting to use a short weapon like a dagger to pick out the bones of a zombie covered in carrion.
"It's better to use long-range attacks to fight the undead in the future, but if you can't do it, you have to use a longer weapon......"
The knight's long sword is a good choice, but Song Zheng's swordsmanship is not good, so he can only use it to mix up experience.
After paying the sacrifice of nearly a thousand people, Arthas and the others had to choose to retreat, the paladins have the favor of the holy light, and the continuous combat power is much stronger, but the average knight is difficult to withstand the continuous battle, not to mention that no one is willing to let the most elite troops of the kingdom be consumed and exchanged with these undead.
Of course, no one knows how many undead there are in the city!
"The combat power of the Undead Scourge is too strong, this race is completely born for battle......" Song Zheng sighed secretly in his heart, even if he managed to make some changes to history, I am afraid that Lordaeron will still fall in the end.
In fact, in the history of Warcraft, if it weren't for the Frozen Throne being attacked by Illidan and Arthas being forced to rush back to Northrend with the army of the undead, I am afraid that the whole of Lordaeron would be the world of the undead.
Although Arthas and Dasohan were not injured, they were extremely angry, after all, although they successfully attacked the city twice, they still had to withdraw from the city in the end.
"I think we're going to burn the city on fire." Dassaulthan said indignantly.
Mograini was a little hesitant about this: "But what if there are still survivors hiding in the city......"
There was a sudden silence around them, everyone was a paladin, and it was absolutely impossible to abandon the lives of the civilians of the kingdom.
"The only way to do this is to try to take the city step by step, and the remains of the defeated undead must be burned so that they don't come back to life." Arthas said in a deep voice, the human prince's face was full of gloom at the moment, but his gaze still fell on the tower of Talenmere not far away.
However, Mograini was quite hesitant after hearing this.
Song Zheng knew what he was hesitating about, and there was nothing wrong with this step-by-step strategy, but it would be a waste of time and would require a lot of logistical supplies.
At present, the entire Hillsbrad Hills is in the shadow of war, and the supply of food alone is a big problem, especially since the sea transportation hub of Nanhai Town is not far from the ruins, and almost all the supplies have to be transported from Dalaran.
